- Winter time is often flatter seas time as well. The Eastern Blue Groper is a residental species but most often fished for in the winter months. They can be caught every month f the year but generally targeted in the cooler months. I hooked this big blue of 10-11kg which took a decent run. The running ball sinker slid up the line and over the FG and leader join. When I tried to wind back the last few metres I coud not do it because the sinker was stuck! If you wndered why I had such a long length of line from the rod top to the fish it was because i could not wind on any more line.
It was fantastic landing this big blue and then releasing it.

I love when you're fishing off the rocks Alex! Good on'ya brother!
hey mate thanks heaps
I'm a spearo and I can assure you there are big grouper at every spot in Sydney some times seems they out number all the other reef species
Its amazing how common these big blueys are now. I'm a scuba diver we see them all the time in these spots. They are extremely common now. If you turn a sea urchin over for a groper, you'll have a new friend for life !
yes plenty now but spearing nearly extincted them in the 60's
@@lauchlanguddy1004 - SPEARFISHING caused the population to crash. Once SPEARFISHING for groper was banned, the population rapidly rebounded and they're abundant now. Put on a mask and have a look for yourself. Perfectly legal to LINEFISH for them and invite one home for dinner if you want. Don't feel guilty about it. They are not endangered or threatened any more.
Great fish, Alex, and very happy to see it returned to the ocean. Love your videos.
Alex never cesses to display such great passion for fishing. Great stuff.
Hi Alex
Brilliant as usual
Look forward to the next vid
Lee
Congratulations Alex. Definitely one of my favorite fish on the rocks. Awesome fish!! Absolutely nailed it.
Great work Alex wow what a fish! Great sportsman you are! Thank you.
Well done Alex, beauty of a fish mate! 👏
Nice fish! Love the energy! 🤙🏽
Great fish, Alex! You deserve fish like that and some quality time to yourself!
Hello Alex.I use the blackfish rubber stoppers between my fg and hook knot so my sinker just runs between them ..Cheap and stops sinker doing that.Large and x large sizes suit most line classes.stm tackle.cheers
The excitement was on another level…
Love it !!
Thanks for posting
Congrats Alex.crackin blue crackin conditions.
Love your excitement whenever you hook up to a good fish! Haha
What a catch Alex well done
If bouncing releases the snag, I will definitely try it next time, Alex. You gave me an idea, ha, ha. Nice fish!
Wow mate! Nicely done
When you've pulled your umpteenth fish out the water and dragged it across rocks and man handled it for a photo, do you ever think "what the fuck am I doing?" 😂
nice fish. and good job on an eggbeater. Knew blokes who would target them. got them double size but with an alvey, 80 and a broom handle. These were strong guys and they really worked for their fish.
Well done mate!
G’day, Alex, what a stonker, mate, first cast, no less lol….. good on ya mate 👍🏼
Excellent Blue 👏🏻
Cheers mate
Good on ya Alex. I’ve never caught a big Blue and probably never will. It’s rare for me to throw back a good fish, but I think if I caught a Blue like that I’d let it swim another day - beautiful fish 👍🏻
Can't believe ppl leave used rubbers in such a pristine location.
Good video.
You a the best fisher
ahh your too kind mate im just ok cheers
Hi Legend,
I am an Italian guy new in fishing off beach and rocks. Which lenght rod do you recommend for fishing off the rocks and wich one for the beach. Your video are amazing.
Thanks
pushing that seajigger to its limit, look at the sheer power of the groper wow
My eats are bleeding affter all that screaming. Really? A very nice fish.
Not sure about putting it in that first pond... Looked like it would have been way warmer than the sea...but great work for releasing it.
How do you rate the 9'6 4-6 rod
ahhhhh westerly, crystal waters, down on those few times a year rocks at low tide....
The good old day's
yes very sad 😏
good eating
a wet towel layed out on the rock makes it easier to handle those big grouper and drummer
Cheers thanks
Nice blue but you're carrying on like a pork chop. Jeez mate. I need new speakers!!!
It concerns me when I catch blues that their guts protude at least 60mm out the butthole sometimes I catch 7 blues a session rarely but occasionally so I just want them to survive and I'm land based so I don't think it's barotrauma I'm on the east coast down south
I hope you're reconsidering now the ban has come in. Damaging six blues in a session is pretty off.
yes no net, removes scales and slime, not good for survival.
Luv ya n luv it al legend but shame that is wat is considered a big blue poor buggers used to be hudge n everywere
ther coming back you see heeps when spearfishing the big ones seem to be out a little deeper /further
Sorry to say the NSW government just fucked your business.
Not really because groper fishing is only about 5-6% of all of my trips in a year. Fortunatly I am a universal angler
@@AlexBellissimo Do you trust this Minister. . . Canned grouper with the stroke of a pen. . . No science, no stock analysis. . . NOTHING. . . . . Only 4600 signatures on a website is all it took
If she deams that rock fishing is too much of a risk to grouper stocks IT IS ALL OVER.
Consider that.
LOVE IT !!!!!!..GOTTA LOVE IT !!!!!! ...EXCELLENT...BRAVO
Where i catch squid i sometimes see them swim past on the the ledge very early mornings and calm conditions never fished for them.
